William Davys
Sir William Davys (born before 1633, died 1687) was an Irish judge who held the offices of Recorder of Dublin, Prime Serjeant and Lord Chief Justice of Ireland. He was often accused of Roman Catholic sympathies and was threatened with removal from the bench, but he succeeded in holding high office until death, due in part to his influential family connections.
==Background==
He was the eldest son of Sir Paul Davys (died 1672), Clerk to the Privy Council of Ireland, by his first wife Margaret Ussher (died 1633), daughter of Arthur Ussher, and granddaughter of Sir William Ussher of Donnybrook. Sir John Davys, Principal Secretary for Ireland was his half-brother. His father has been described as a remarkable man who through a long career was able to work with Viceroys as different as the Earl of Strafford, Henry Cromwell, and James Butler, 1st Duke of Ormonde. It was his father's long friendship with Ormonde which gave William his own start in life, since Ormonde prided himself on loyalty to his friends and their families. William entered Lincoln's Inn in 1649, was called to the English bar in 1657, and entered King's Inn in 1661.
